What is the maximum days the report can be obtained for the test

The maximum days the report can be obtained for the test WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is 7 days.

What are the prerequisites for the test WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry

  • Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections on positively charged slides
  • Appropriate positive and negative controls
  • Antigen retrieval solution (e.g. citrate buffer or EDTA buffer)
  • Primary antibody specific for the target antigen
  • Secondary antibody conjugated to a detection system (e.g. HRP or AP)
  • Chromogen or fluorophore substrate for visualization
  • Mounting medium and coverslips

What are the measure values for the test WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry

Measure Values for WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry

  • Positive: >80% of tumor cells show nuclear staining
  • Weak Positive: 10-80% of tumor cells show nuclear staining
  • Negative: <10% of tumor cells show nuclear staining

What does this test WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry identify?

WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is a diagnostic test that identifies the presence of Wilms' tumor 1 protein in tissue samples. Wilms' tumor 1 protein is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the development of the kidneys. Abnormal expression of WT-1 protein is associated with various types of cancers, including Wilms' tumor, mesothelioma, and some types of leukemia.

Why is this test WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry taken?

The WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is typically taken to diagnose or monitor Wilms tumor, a type of kidney cancer that primarily affects children. This test detects the presence of the WT-1 protein, which is often overexpressed in Wilms tumors.

Popular FAQs on Test

The WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of the WT-1 protein in tissue samples. This protein is commonly found in certain types of cancer, particularly in tumors of the kidney, ovary, and mesothelioma.
The WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is performed by staining tissue samples with specific antibodies that are designed to bind to the WT-1 protein. The stained samples are then examined under a microscope to determine the presence and localization of the protein.
The WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry may be performed to aid in the diagnosis and classification of certain types of cancer, as well as to predict the prognosis and response to treatment. It can also be used to differentiate between different types of cancer that may have similar characteristics.
The WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is not a definitive diagnostic test on its own. It is often used in conjunction with other diagnostic tests and clinical findings to provide a comprehensive assessment of the patient's condition.
The WT-1 Test Immunohistochemistry is considered a safe procedure with minimal risks. However, like any medical test, there is a possibility of false-positive or false-negative results. Patients may also experience some discomfort during the tissue sampling procedure.
